It has been a LONG LONG LONG week. First week of holidays and it is already feeling like I'm turning into a mundane run-in-a-middle office boy with nothing to look forward to in life. Though I actually do have a number of projects to look forward to in the very near future. (i.e. next week.)

So anyway, I got a job in a company from my mum. It goes like this

dealing with things like these

But I mostly do filing and paperwork for the poor souls of the crew on board. Get them official clearance to work in the sea and make sure their certificates are authentic and valid - there are ways to check that and I know how!!!! So if I don't do my job those people will STAY ON THE SHIPS till authorities catch them. I feel so important. But I mostly just do filing of old documents and copying and pasting stuff on the salary sheet.

On other news, I also - by the good nature of a friend named Mark Ng - got heads up to get a part in a project with

Doing a drama project for sec 1s. based off this book:

Which seems like a brilliant literature book just based off the first 3 chapters of the book alone. Got it at Sans bookshop for under $8! YAY!!! It rained cats and dogs when we (Sharon, Polly & I) went for the interview...good sign? I don't know.


Oh oh, and I got to watch

with Fairy on Wednesday, M18 movie - 17 yr old movie date. Hahaha, totally nervous about sneaking underaged girls into rated movies? Well, not at first but with the constant reminder from our dear little fairy herself that she is under 18 got me a bit riled and rattled too. XD Srsly. But we got in just fine anyway.

Had dinner at a ramen place in PLAZA SING, in a random hidden corner that got renovated last year I think. Never saw that corner before. And I had -by recommendation of Alethea- the White Ramen.

It was a tad bit too salty for my tastebuds, creamy but light soup and overall very nicely done. Hahah, totally drained my iced lemon tea. XD

No Strings Attached left me feeling empty. ): ): I just felt like they could have created a stronger suspense. Maybe it is just me, but I feel that Natalie going from Black Swan to No Strings Attached was probably to offset the tension? I can see how no strings attached would be fun to film without all that pressure of performance realism - but I just felt dissatisfied. Good but dissatisfied. Maybe it is just how I feel with life right now. That's a thought. O.O

Been reading BECK, suddenly I feel like I am not committed enough to playing the guitar for gigging. I need to polish up, get serious and start to hone my techniques if I want to play the guitar for paid shows. Along with being paid for hosting, drama facilitation, acting, teaching and trying new things out. That's an ideal life that I am convince can be found as long as I stay sharp and snappy on my feet. :D

P.S. I put my birthday guitar up for sales, snapped up in 3 hours. A bit sad, but more practical. Sides it is the spirit of the gift that lives on. It will move on to a better guitar that will play gigs for live audiences who will be swaying with the music!!!
